    He congratulated him. Okay dont see the issue here.

    “But as far Bradley, whoever he’s working out with, they have to make a lot of changes because he’s lifting too many weights. He’s more worried about how he looks on the scale than he how performs inside that ring. Bradley went out there and fought his heart out, but I think that he was throwing a lot of shots like an amateur. I think he was making a lot of mistakes. He was very, very fatigued early on. I think that he was making a lot of mistakes and fighting like an amateur.

    Again whats wrong here? Floyd was right Bradley did gas early, he made several mistakes and looked pretty bad. The only wrong thing I see is the assumption that Bradley cares more about how he looks than how he performs.

    “I think both fighters fought like amateurs. I thought Pacquiao fought like an amateur, also, and I wasn’t pleased with his performance. But, you know, he got the victory the best way he knows how. But I wasn’t pleased with his performance at all. I’m seeing something totally different in Pacquiao, but still, that don’t make me say I’m going to go out there and fight him because he’s with Bob Arum and I’m with Mayweather Promotions.”

    Again Floyd is correct. I scored the fight 116-112 for Pacquiao. Clear, cut win over Bradley imo 8 rounds to 4. BUT he looked terrible imo. I said this on the radio show Pacquiao looked almost zombie like. I didnt see the blazing speed or power. He looked just good enough to beat a guy like Bradley but I didnt see his talent look above and beyond like I expected to be honest. I picked Manny to win by knockouts over Bradley twice now.


    “I don’t see the same pop in Pacquiao’s shots,” Mayweather said. “Me, myself, you know, I’m not saying this guy is doing anything, but I don’t see the same snap in his shots, he’s getting tired and he wasn’t getting tired before. So I’m seeing something totally different, whereas me, I’m still sharp, I’m still smart, I’m not getting fatigued. I wasn’t getting fatigued from the beginning. Those are the things that I see. I don’t know if you guys see it, but that’s what I see.”

    Yes again I didnt see the power or snap in Pacquiaos punches either. He threw a lot of punches with literally nothing behind it.


    I dont get all the outrage.
    what did u expect? manny to come out and knock bradley out of the arena?? i thought pac was always this sloppy, lungging in?? why were u expecting something different? lmao!!!

      Douche bag he said Manny doesnt look like the same fighter now than when Ariza was in his corner, hmmm, wonder why? You can spin it anyway you like, but ppl with common sense, and dont hate neither fighter, can read between the lines on what he was saying.....but since you are a ******* let me translate to you: "he doesnt look like the same fighter now as he did when Ariza was in his corner, rather he looked great or looked bad or looked like an amateur, I still wont fight him because he's still promoted by Bob Arum"

      Once Arum is out the way Im sure the fight could get made, a la Cotto..
      when marquez knocked manny out, ariza was still with pac.. so i guess the peds didnt work huh?

        What does being sloppy and lunging in have to do with knocking Bradley out?

        Yes I expected Manny to knock Bradley out. He has little to no defense, he doesnt have elite stamina, hes not smart, he has a shaky chin, very wild, etc.

        Yes I expected Manny to stop him thats all you got from my post?

            LMAO. This post actually made me laugh. The guy listed like 7 things pac and his team said over the years and you single out one thing that u dont think he actually said (ignoring the other quotes) and ask for proof. Lol.

            For the record, though, it was Arum that said Pacquiao was afraid of needles, not Pacquiao. Manny just said that drawing blood makes him too weak to train...which is just as bad BTW.

              u said u were expecting a better performance from manny. i pointed out that didnt u guys always criticized pac for being sloppy and always lungging in. so im asking u, if u knew how pac fights already why were u expecting something out of the norm?? so u expect pac to knock bradley out? did u expect the same for marquez? how about all the other opponents that lost to bradley? better yet, who has stopped bradley before? damm that pacman he sucks! cant even stop bradley.

                    I disagree. Fighters/promoters have been doing this for a long time. It's basic marketing.
